Answer:

$x \ = \ 10$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let point $D$ be the point where the straight line drawn from point $A$ meets the straight line $BC$ , it is evident that $\triangle ABD$ and $\triangle ACD$ is similar given that both triangles share the same angle, $\angle BAD \ = \ \angle DAC$ . Hence, the ratio of the sides of each triangle is the same. Specifically,

$\displaystyle{\frac{x+4}{8} \ = \ \frac{2x+1}{12}}$ .

Performing cross multiplication yields

$12\left(x+4\right) \ = \ 8\left(2x+1\right) \\ \\ \rule{0.15cm}{0cm}12x+48 \ = \ 16x+8 \\ \\ \rule{1.1cm}{0cm} 4x \ = \ 40 \\ \\ \rule{1.3cm}{0cm} x \ = \ 10$ .

I am unsure about the very last problem but I can help with the first two

1) (y+1)+4

If we combine the numbers 1 and 4, we get +5 and can isolate the numbers from the variable.

This would give us

$y + 5 =$

2) (6*r)*7

remember that we do not have to explicitly state 6*r

Instead, we can write it as 6r

this helps us get rid of the parentheses

now we can write it as $6r * 7=$

I hope this helps!:)

Help??I have 4 questions and im confused on all of them

So you you are trying to find the area of sphere so you would use this formula
A=4•3.14•r^2

And you already know that the radius is 6 so you would go ahead and plug in the numbers
A=4•3.14•4^2

4^2 is 16 so your final equation would be
A=4•3.14•16

And your answer is

=452.39
